This is going to be Maricar's first baby with her non-showbiz boyfriend. When they confirmed she was indeed along the family way -- they got the email when they were about to go inside a church to pray -- Maricar admitted she was so excited, while her partner even cried. In about a month's time, they will be welcoming their child. She plans to give birth in the Philippines since it's her first pregnancy and because her family is here.

Maricar chose to be private when it comes to her new relationship. She said she has learned a lot from her separation and annulment from her ex, former basketball player Don Allado. The pretty mom-to-be said, however, that she'll introduce her new beau to the public when he arrives in the country. (pep.ph)

Toni has been posting shots of her little boy in an attempt to freeze time. "Stay in my arms a little longer please," the new mom wrote as a caption for one of the photos. In another post, she wrote, "Let me love you a little more before you're not little anymore." Aww. Time flies by so fast! (pep.ph)

Jennylyn Mercado reveals best and toughest parts of being a single mom

When she gave birth, one of her fears was whether or not the public would still accept her. Jennylyn wasn't sure if she still had a career to go back to. But now, the sexy single mom feels so proud in seeing her almost-nine-year-old son Alex Jazz (with actor Patrick Garcia) grow up into a fine young boy and "the feeling of pride that I raised him single-handedly," Jennylyn told Inquirer.net. The hardest part of being a single mom, she says, is time management. "Especially when shooting takes me out of town, I miss some of Jazz’s school programs due to the demands of my job, but he understands that I’m working hard for his future," she added.
